Way Down South by The Bottle Rockets Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Twenty miles from Texas
Five hundred miles from you
Saint Christopher protects us
In this job I chose to do
I'm weary from the travelin’
But that's somethin' we’re used to
Twenty miles from Texas
Five hundred miles from you

[Chorus]
And I'm goin' way down south
'Fore I get home
You know I love it way down south
But I hate leavin' you alone

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
And I'm goin' way down south
'Fore I get home
You know I love it way down south
But I hate leavin’ you alone
[Verse 2]
Twenty miles from Texas
Five hundred miles away
This wi-fi connects us
’Til I'm back next Saturday
Another hotel breakfast
Then I’m off to earn my pay
Twenty miles from Texas
Five hundred miles away

[Outro]
And I'm goin' way down south
Way down south
I'm goin’ way down south
Way down south
I'm goin' way down south
Way down south
And I'm goin' way down south
Way down south
Way down south
I'm goin' way down south
Way down south
